A new neutrino detector in China aims to spot mysterious ghost particles lurking around us

There seems to be quite a bit of research in this field in recent years, Japan has been building a large detector under an extinct volcano.
I remember the first detector that discovered neutrinos that was built deep inside a mine far underground, was quite a big deal at the time.

I remember that, and that is why I added this post, didn't know there were different types besides anti-neutrinos, and thought the understanding was more advanced than it seems to be.

I thought that the way the material Universe matter had come about was well understood as a branch off case that disguised, until recently, how it had formed as a special case not previously known, and the mystery was now understood.

Surprised they are saying that neutrinos and their reality would reveal more about how the matter in the Universe was created.

Maybe things have moved on. I know that the fact, so it seems, that the Universe is expanding at an increasing rate had caused a rethink about how much we actually know.

Yeah there are different types being discovered, some are still hypothetical at this stage, but these new detectors should conform it.
The LHC has also been instrumental in confirming some of these models, its pretty crazy that these things are travelling through us 24/7 without us even knowing.
There is a good documentary called project poltergeist that goes into the initial discovery of the neutrino.
